    Do you wax plastic ramps as well? Or just the playfield portions and the balls.

    Quoted from mystic:

    No problem. Plastics of all colors benefit from a good cleaning. Dont forget to give some love to the underside of the ramps as they tend to get ignored.

    I use this, Plexus, removes or fills any little blemishes, made in the USA, pricey, but so are our pins!!

    As I just epoxied and spraypainted it, it's about as clean as it'll ever get, even on the underside. Just wasn't sure about protecting it with a wax or just using Novus on it.
